T0 Gaming Guild Saves the World.

Chapter 391, page 390: Some are happy, some are sad.

The two fought with such ferocity that it seemed they could turn the battlefield upside down.

Whenever someone is at a disadvantage, they can always quickly change tactics and find a way to counterattack.

Even Ksha couldn't say for sure whether Renee, lying on the ground, still had the ability to fight back.

However, it seemed that both of them were almost out of strength—at least Mint's punches weren't as powerful, and her arm movements were smaller.

When she taught Mint, she always emphasized that the key to victory lay in physical strength.

Based on current observations, all pre-war predictions have been accurate.

"Will the potatoes reward me?" she couldn't help but wonder.

Queen Jingxin reminded the hesitant referees: "Perhaps you should go and check the situation?"

Wick entered and saw Renee lying down, ready to be hammered.

Mint blinked, loosened her knuckles, and slowly stood up.

After being ridden and beaten for a while, Renee was finally able to breathe heavily—it wasn't heavy, but the pressure on her waist and abdomen was not pleasant at all.

"Yes, what's the result?"

Ironically, all the referees sent by Kurien were high-ranking, yet they seemed somewhat insecure when facing two young men. After glancing around, they were finally convinced that this sensational battle in Anna had truly come to an end.

"I'll announce it after I stand up."

Renee struggled to her feet, using her bluish-purple arms to support her equally bruised body.

"He really is a proud person," Mint thought to herself.

As the winner, she said magnanimously, "We are evenly matched in terms of magic, but you lost because of your physical strength."

Renee refused the offer.

"A loss is a loss. In real combat, no one will wait for you to recover your strength. High-level mages will use all their skills in a life-or-death duel. Without tender protection, no one can predict the outcome of the battle."

At this point, Mint's lips curled up in a smile.

If she were really in the wild, she would definitely drink her fill of magic potions, ask everyone at the boundary between reality and illusion for some treasures, arm herself to the teeth, and charge forward with a roar.

Wick let Mint fix his appearance, and the spectators were already in an uproar.

Mint, who was riding Renee and beating her up, suddenly stood up. The referee entered the arena, and almost everyone had the answer stuck in their throats, waiting for the official announcement before exclaiming in surprise.

What did they see today?
Renee, the all-around magician from the Grelian family who has been famous in Anna since she was 10 years old, lost.

Regardless of the process, the result is undeniable.

Potions, magic control, and real combat – the entire process of the three trials.

With the presence of numerous powerful forces and high-ranking mages as witnesses, its value is unparalleled.

Wick took a deep breath and shouted, "I declare..."

"The final winner of the three trials is Mint!"

The clamor subsided for a moment, and a few seconds later, scattered applause merged into a thunderous roar.

The screams and cheers that surged from all directions swept over Mint like a tidal wave, engulfing her, who had never received any attention before, and propelling her onto a path to fame she had never imagined.

Renee reached out her hand to Mint.

"You're progressing quite quickly. May I ask if anyone is assisting you?"

"Of course there is. They trained me in just one year to transform my weak combat skills into something that could rival yours. Although there were some shortcuts involved, the techniques were all tailored to your habits."

"They...no, you're happy being with them?"

“Of course.” Mint put her hands on her hips. “I wish they could watch me concoct potions in the guild every day and admire my masterpieces, but these guys are always acting mysteriously and going on adventures.”

"Let me tell you, they're like puppies. When they go out to forage for food, they pick up a little bit here and a bite there, but they don't really eat any of it. Every time, we rush back to eat it."

Then, with a look of excitement, he asked me, 'Hey, Mint, Mint, can you take a look and see if this is useful?'

"You probably have no idea how ugly their faces are. It was clearly a treasure that many magicians would never want, but they treated it like a pebble picked up from the roadside, dusted it off, and took it home. But when I looked at it, it turned out to be jade!"

"It feels like they're lying to me. They risk their lives every day to gather materials for me and buy new gadgets for the guild, but I get to enjoy it all while they can't even get a hot meal."

The scene of picking up "trash" at the boundary between reality and illusion for Mint to enjoy, and waiting for Mint's comments and praise, leaps off the page...

Renee was stunned and remained silent for a long time.

While at the academy, Renee was convinced that Mint was the same kind of person as her.

The only difference is that she has an entire family behind her, while Mint has nothing.

She needs to seize every hard-won opportunity, step by step.

She wanted to show goodwill, but each time she did, it resembled a provocation.

She had her henchman share the food she brought with Mint, trying to keep her away from the strange homemade wild vegetable dumplings.

But the henchman interpreted it as waving delicacies in front of Mint and saying things like "lowly people can't afford them".

Renee scolded her followers, but they only idolized her more.

It was her capricious nature that seemed to define what a genius truly is.

Parents, and all the people around me who admire me—everyone is strange.

She grew up in a strange environment from childhood to adulthood.

Mint's handshake with Renee was beyond many people's expectations.

Rumor has it that the two are sworn enemies, and they had constant friction during their time at the Star Speakers Academy, with an atmosphere that once seemed ready to challenge each other to a duel.

According to fellow students, Mint even claimed she wanted to blow Renee away.

But it seems... these two, even if they can't be said to get along, are definitely not mortal enemies.

Goodness, not only did the Star Speakers Academy expel Mint from the academy, but they also used inside information to manipulate betting and profit from gamblers before the competition even started. Utterly wicked!

Mint won, but the boundary between reality and illusion didn't cheer much; they slumped on the railing like noodles.

The match was full of ups and downs. When Renee used her Giant Space Slash, they thought Mint was doomed to lose.

I feel relieved.

From the moment they met Mint at the start of the game and learned about this past event, they wanted to seek justice for her and bring a perfect end to the story.

The snowball effect of the boundary between the virtual and the real world cannot be separated from her assistance, and the current glory of the T0 guild also owes a part to her.

"By the way, what did you bet on?" Jiang Heyi remembered the pre-match betting process.

Orange Tea raised an eyebrow, recalling carefully.

"It seems to be a game called 'skewer'. I bet on it. The total score was Mint 2:1, Magic Potion won the contest, and I won the actual battle."

what?
The jailer had already run back and forth once, and his grinning mouth said a lot.

"Two [Divine Forging Universal Materials]".

"Huh? Iridescent?"

Yes, that's right, just keep spending your life on it, it's just a game after all.

Offline is fine too. If we die, we can all be reborn in Anna and fight again. We can spend money to save this little life!
Some people are happy that someone is worried.

After watching the match, Curry was filled with excitement, his mind filled with images of himself before he became king, and Wick's triumphant journey across Anna.

The name of the Lion King is renowned far and wide; it's not a title he earned after ascending the throne.

He felt incredibly happy, having temporarily abandoned his political and planning considerations and returned to the past with the young people.

Looking over to the nearby Grion house, well, it certainly deserves a large glass of chilled wine.

He held up his glass, swirling the rosy, fragrant liquor inside. He stretched, a smile playing on his lips, and watched as they gripped the railing tighter and tighter.

Some people's faces were liver-colored, while others were ashen.

No one can accept this result.

Renee's image as an unrivaled figure among her peers is deeply ingrained in people's minds. She faced numerous challenges between the ages of 10 and 14, yet no one ever challenged her position.

Everyone thought she would dominate the generation, bestowing upon all the new magicians of Anna the words, "Genius is merely the threshold to seeing me." But a stubborn sprig of mint, sprouting from the wasteland, cleverly used a set of excellent tactics to break through spatial magic on the spot, thus dethroning Renee.

They remain silent in front of outsiders.

If the loser makes too many excuses, it will only lead people to conclude that they are a sore loser.

He swallowed his pride and thanked Kurien, expressing his gratitude for providing the venue and having a top-tier mage protect the match.

Kurien remained calm, feeling as if he had drunk ice-cold honey water on a sunny day, the sweetness spreading from his throat to his heart.

To see a magical family like the Grelian, with its thousand-year history, suffer such a setback—have any of the many previous kings of the Anna Empire ever experienced this?
Only him!
pity……

Unfortunately, Mint isn't one of us.

Unfortunately, the boundary between reality and illusion slipped past them.

“Star Speaker…” He couldn’t help but grit his teeth.

The instructors at the Star Speakers Academy were on pins and needles.

After completing the potion trial, they sensed impending doom.

Halfway through the actual battle, Renee and Mint's almost showy fighting techniques turned the water they were drinking into sweat, which soaked their entire bodies.

Their handkerchiefs couldn't wipe away the beads of sweat, and their throats grew increasingly dry.

They didn't think much of mint.

She's just a potions apprentice with slightly better talent. How outstanding can she be?
The magicians who can come to the various academies of the empire for advanced studies are all elites from their respective city-states.

In the academy, everyone is a genius; one more or one less Mint won't make a difference.

The key issue is that she is also arrogant and rude. As a mere apprentice, she argued with her mentor in class, questioning whether his lecturing on divergent thinking was related to the subject matter, and she also clashed with her mentor multiple times over the improvement of potions.

An apprentice boasted that his recipe was far superior to his mentor's.

The big joke of slipping the world!

"You're so good, then you come up here and teach me, and I'll go down and listen!"

It was just a remark made in anger, and Vanare, as the mentor, made a move to step down from the podium.

But Mint took it seriously. She rushed forward, erased Vanaree's writing on the blackboard, and began writing her own solution.

She couldn't understand the implied meaning at all; she truly lived up to her reputation as a barbarian from the southern border.

From that point on, Vanaree abandoned the "it's either her or me" mentality within his mentor circle.

It is despicable to compete with students and bully the weak.

But the Imperial Academy has been operating for hundreds of years, and its influence is deeply entrenched, with each entity having its own part in the other.

One student is not worth ruining their relationship.

Therefore, it was only natural to exclude Mint from all sides and to instruct Renee's followers to harass Mint.

Up to this point in the story, it's nothing more than casually destroying a potions apprentice who had a sliver of hope.

Such stories are not unheard of.

"Who knows if she can beat Renee?"

"She can beat Renee, why should we drive her away!"
